Father's Message - Our Response To Covid-19

Dear Folks,

Stewards In The Garden Campaign – We Live In A Challenging World – As Stewards We Have The Privilege Of Making A Positive Contribution To Create A Little Bit Of Heaven In The Here And Now – Through Deep Sacrifices And Leaps Of Faith We Will Follow In The Foot Steps of Jesus

As we move through the Easter Season, I want to continue a reflection with you on some long-term challenges and opportunities that lie before us. Some of the challenges include deferred maintenance such as the aging HVAC in the school building. Some of the opportunities include a proactive outreach into the community to strengthen all our ministry activities. We have a unique and timely opportunity to promote Jesus’ mission in our community. By baptism, we are called to be stewards of this mission. I encourage everyone to make a prayerful reflection upon this as a part of their Lent-Easter-Pentecost journey.

TTR – Time To Return – As more and more people are vaccinated it becomes safer for people to gather for mass. To this end, I want to encourage people to consider coming back to in-person mass. Last Sunday we had 260 people in attendance. This is twice the number we had at the beginning of Lent. There’s about 140 more people that need to come to get us back to an average of about 400 per week.

Remember the 6 P’s – Prayer, Prevention, Protection, Patience, and Perseverance – Not Panic

Take time to pray during this special time. Seek to follow the way of Jesus as we move forward. Read More…
